Let me get this straight.

I got sick of Webwit's personal attacks against people (including me) for being cheap. So, I reported one that was particularily nasty. What's the worst that can happen? iMav will come and give him a warning? He deserves it!

Truly a fate worse than death.

Not for a keyboard. Every one of Webwit's keyboards I've seen is kept in tip-top shape in its own little box. I wish I had enough boxes to do that to what I've got.

They have the coal miners, we have the alcoholics. It's a cosy arrangement.

So... You attach this to a Model M to monitor the amount of bull**** that gets pumped out of it?

Or attach it to this thread to measure how far we have trended off topic. Nothing like a good thread derail for some serious entertainment though, and this one deserves an emmy.

I can assure you that the thread has derailed.

What about offering honorary, one decent Industrial Model M mini to the newbies?

I seriously doubt you're going to find many people who have them who are willing to part with them.

It seems as if all is according to plans
better stock up on those keyboards before brian goes bankrupt.

On a more positive note, I have in my possession my first mechanical board. A full size Filco with blue cherries, it is brilliant. I do notice however that I have horrible typing habits, and that the "sloppiness" inherent in my old boards helped me to have less typos. These mechanical boards have such a perfectly precise action, I have to really concentrate on hitting the keys perfectly. This board sure rewards a light touch, and even in the time it took me to post this (my first typing with this board), I have already started to get better lightening up and finding the tactile point.

Thanks so much for all of your help in finding my first board. The other 3 switched I have in mind are brown cherries, BS, and Topre.

Oh no! There's no chance for you; It's all decided for you; This world has many sweet keyboards set aside for you.

Maybe one of your industrial minis? No?, I didn't think so :-(
